Do you remember; when you were born? How you were like. Do you remember how you cried for thing even to get yourself food. You had to cry out loud and say it to the world.Nobody ever remembers how they were like when they were born. What they remember the memories they make while they grow up.
"Mom, what should we do for Aarya's birthday ?" I ask from leaving room ,when mom is in the kitchen.
I can't believe that my sweet baby girl is almost one year older now.When did she grew up so fast.
Her birthday is after two days.I am planning in advance.Though I don't have many friends,But I got mom and dad, I guess !
I don't know if Dad would come to celebrate her birthday.He is still angry at me.But if mom could convince him to come, I would be more that glad to have him here.
"I can't believe she has grown so fast !" said Mom as she brought our lunch at sofa.
" Where is she ?" I ask looking for her in leaving room.
"She fell asleep a while ago!" She says as she hand me my plate.
She sit besides me comfortably and starts to change channels on tv.
I take big mouthful bite of sandwich.Mom slowly turn to me and I look at her. She has this puzzled look on her face I can't quite comprehend about.I gulped that big bite of sandwich inside my throat uncomfortably as it almost chocked me.
" Whats wrong ? " I cough as I drank water to ease the pain.
" I was thinking about the guest list ! It's not that big. Some of your colleagues and dad probably." Says mom.
Disturbingly I find her tone bit hesitant, as though she needed to spit out something that she knew I would practically don't approve of.I know mom has this habbit of putting things in different way ,the way I can't understand and then she *BOOM* she drops the real bomb.
Now I am really getting worried!
" what is it Mom , say it ? " I couldnt handle the suspicion.
she paus and look me in the eyes " Promise me you will consider it ?"
Now I am actually ,literally, I am scared worried.
" What ? " I widen my eyes. How else I'm supposed to react.
" Don't worry ,Jackson ,just promise."
I let out big irritating sigh." okay ! "
I prepared myself for whatever she has in her hand to drop. Something that I quite sometime find explosive.
I still remember the last time when she did this I was devastated for a week.I had important project due on Friday and I had worked really hard ,I had worked my ass off literally. I hadn't saved it cause it needed last touch.
That very day I had to go out with lexie.I talked about that project with her the entire time I was with her and I knew for sure I was going to get an A. By the time I was home, I enthusiastically was about go up and finish it up. Just Then Mom called me and started to talk in circle.
I asked her what was wrong. She said " Jackson sorry I needed to use your laptop urgently.so when I close your window to do my work. I accidentally clicked on Don't save."
You can imagine my feelings.Shocked. blanked. Surprised Versus Doomed
The same thing she is doing now. Tell Mom tell , freaking tell me yells my mind . I know I have to ready myself to suffer the consequences.
